Peter Paul Cetera(/səˈtɛrə/sə-TERR-ə; born
September 13, 1944) is an American retired singer, songwriter, and bassist best
known for being an original member of the rock band Chicago(1967–1985), before launching a successful solo career. His career as a recording
artist encompasses 17
albums with Chicago and eight solo albums.
With "If You Leave
Me Now", a song written and
sung by Cetera on the group's tenth album, Chicago garnered its first Grammy Award. It was also the group's first number one single.
As a solo artist, Cetera has scored six Top 40 singles, including two that reached number one on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in 1986, "Glory of Love" and "The Next Time
I Fall." "Glory of
Love", the theme song from the film The Karate
Kid Part II(1986), was
co-written by Cetera, David Foster, and Diane Nini, and was nominated for both an Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award for best original song from a motion picture. In 1987,
Cetera received an ASCAP award for "Glory of Love" in the category,
"Most Performed Songs from Motion Pictures." His performance on
"Glory of Love" was nominated for a Grammy Award for best pop male
vocal. That same year Cetera and Amy Grant, who performed as a duet on "The Next Time I Fall", were
nominated for a Grammy Award for best vocal performance by a pop duo or group.
Besides David Foster and Amy Grant, Cetera has
collaborated throughout his career with other nationally known and
internationally known recording artists from various genres of music including:
The Beach Boys, Billy Joel, Karen Carpenter, Paul Anka, Agnetha Fältskog, Richard Sterban, Bonnie Raitt, Madonna, David Gilmour, Az Yet, Cher, Chaka Khan, Crystal Bernard, Ronna Reeves, and Alison Krauss. His songs have been featured in soundtracks for
movies and television.
In 2014, Chicago's first album, Chicago
Transit Authority(Columbia, 1969), featuring Cetera on bass and vocals, was inducted into the Grammy Hall
of Fame. Cetera was inducted into
the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame as a member of
Chicago in April 2016, and he, Robert Lamm, and James Pankow are among the 2017 Songwriters
Hall of Fame inductees for
their songwriting efforts as members of the group. Cetera, along with other
members of Chicago, received a Grammy
Lifetime Achievement Award in 2020.
You're the Inspiration: A Collection(1997) is the
second album released by Peter Cetera for River North
Records and the sixth
album released as a solo artist. While labeled as a 'collection', the album is
not really a compilation of 'Greatest Hits' but rather a collection of previously recorded
duets, a few new songs and a few re-recordings of old Chicago hits.
You know our love was
meant to be
The kind of love to last forever
And I want you here
with me
From tonight until
the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind
In my heart, in my
soul, baby
You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you
And I know, yes, I
know that it's plain to see
We're so in love when
we're together
Now I know, that I
need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
Always on my mind
In my heart, in my soul, baby
You're the meaning in
my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I
No one needs you more
than I
Wanna have you near
me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more
than I need you
You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to
my life
You're the inspiration
When you love somebody
(Till the end of time)
When you love
somebody
(Always on my mind)
No one needs you more than I
When you love somebody
(Till the end of time)
When you love somebody
(Always on my mind)
No one needs you more than I
When you love somebody
(Till the end of time)
When you love somebody
(Always on my mind)
No one needs you more than I
When you love somebody.
